    Description
    This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

    - A tapestry element whose surface is almost entirely occupied by an assembly of figures in an antique setting. This lively composition draws the viewer's gaze to the center, where a man wearing a helmet bows to a woman while placing his hands on her belly. They exchange a look that speaks volumes.
    This scene echoes tales from Greek mythology: Hecuba, pregnant, and her husband Priam, the future king of Troy. In her dream, Hecuba foretells the destruction of Troy through the fault of her unborn son, Paris. For this reason, Hecuba and Priam abandon the child on Mount Ida, where he is taken in by shepherds.

    - The attention to detail in the costumes, the precision and sensitivity in the faces, and the legibility of the composition despite the large number of characters, all indicate that the original cardboard for this piece was the work of a good painter. Tapestry woven in an Aubusson workshop, mid-17th century.

    - Restorations are to be noted. Lined, ring fastening system.
